“…Secara ringkasnya, semasa tempoh awal PKP, saya menggunakan platform dalam talian sebagai medium pengajaran sebagaimana Guru-guru Pendidikan Khas yang lain (Zainun & Mat Noor, 2022;Zainun et al, 2021). Saya telah menghasilkan beberapa buah video pengajaran dan pembelajaran bahasa Inggeris dan memuat naik di YouTube.…”

In this action research study, a sight word approach was developed for teaching English to pupils with Down syndrome in a Special Education Integrated Programme (PPKI) in Perak, Malaysia, during the pandemic. This approach integrated contextual picture sight words, sign language prompts, enrichment activities using word wheels, and a reward system through a word bank. The research methodology harnessed qualitative data collection techniques, and the acquired data was meticulously subjected to narrative analysis. This process yielded three distinct vignettes, each representing the unique learning journey of the three pupils involved in the study. The success of this approach hinged on repeated application, adequate pause intervals, and clear, succinct teacher instructions. Abstrak Kajian tindakan ini membangunkan pendekatan kata pandang untuk kaedah pengajaran bahasa Inggeris terhadap murid sindrom Down di Program Pendidikan Khas Integrasi Pembelajaran (PPKI) di Perak, Malaysia semasa pandemik. Pendekatan ini menggabungkan kata pandang kad bergambar kontekstual, kata pandang bahasa isyarat, aktiviti penguatkuasaan dengan menggunakan roda perkataan, dan sistem ganjaran melalui bank perkataan. Metodologi kajian melibatkan teknik pengumpulan data kualitatif, dan data yang diperoleh dianalisis dengan menggunakan analisis naratif. Proses ini menghasilkan tiga vignet yang utama, setiap satu mewakili perjalanan pembelajaran unik bagi tiga murid yang terlibat dalam kajian. Pelaksanaan pendekatan ini bergantung pada proses pengulangan, selang waktu yang sesuai, serta arahan guru yang jelas dan ringkas.

“…Menjadi keutamaan saya agar anak-anak murid dapat melaksanakan aktiviti dengan usaha mereka berdikit-dikit sehingga berjaya dan berasa bertanggungjawab (Bodovski et al, 2022) dalam setiap tugasan yang diberikan tanpa perlu pemantauan ibu bapa. Oleh itu, saya perlu bijak untuk membuat tindakan bagi mengatasi ketidakpastian situasi semasa pelaksanaan PdPR (Zainun et al, 2021).…”

This article narrates my experience as a Special Education Teacher in Perak, Malaysia throughout the period of Home-based Teaching and Learning (PdPR). I faced dilemmas involving parents as facilitators and intermediaries in helping to assess their children’s skills and tasks. I realised that good and continuous communication as well as maintaining positive relationships among pupils, parents, and teachers are very important in implementing meaningful PdPR. In addition, the preparation of a PdPR manual for parents is essential, and they need to be consulted about their roles and responsibilities when helping to complete their children’s assignments at home. This experience can serve as a lesson for teachers implementing PdPR and when giving homework assignments to pupils in the future. Abstrak Nukilan ini menceritakan pengalaman saya sebagai Guru Pendidikan Khas sepanjang tempoh pengajaran dan pembelajaran di rumah (PdPR) yang lalu. Saya menghadapi dilema semasa melibatkan ibu bapa sebagai fasilitator dan pemudah cara bagi membantu saya untuk membuat penilaian tugasan kemahiran pembuatan roti anak mereka. Saya menyedari bahawa komunikasi yang baik dan berterusan serta menjaga hubungan sesama murid, ibu bapa, dan guru amat penting bagi menjayakan PdPR yang bermakna. Selain itu, penyediaan manual PdPR kepada ibu bapa juga amat mustahak serta mereka perlu dirunding tentang peranan dan tanggungjawab untuk membantu menyempurnakan tugasan anak-anak di rumah. Pengalaman ini boleh dijadikan sebagai pengajaran untuk guru bagi melaksanakan PdPR pada masa hadapan dan semasa memberikan tugasan kerja rumah untuk murid.

“…Last but not least, I discuss how inspiring demotivated students to become more interested in English language study is a challenge, particularly for students who do not enjoy studying the subject. This dilemma has led me to evaluate the relationship between my teaching approaches, behaviours, and the learning environment, rather than solely focusing on student-related factors (Zainun & Mat Noor, 2022).…”

Exploring my dilemmas as an educator teaching English to speakers of other languages

Teaching the English language to students from various programmes at tertiary level remains a challenging task. Most students perceive Communicative English, a compulsory course that needs to be passed to graduate, as a threat. This reflective paper aims to discuss three dilemmas that I have experienced with my English language students in this context. First, students expect that English language learning should be as fun as it was in primary school. However, the tertiary level demands that attention be paid to career development, which is somewhat discordant with this ideal. Second, students participate in class activities without engaging themselves in the learning process. Last but not least, motivating demotivated students to develop an interest in English language learning is not an easy task, especially for those students who do not enjoy learning English. The paper ultimately highlights the need for educators to constantly reflect on their practice and changing learning contexts.
